May is Celiac Disease Awareness Month


Celiac Disease affects about 1% of the general population.  This means that millions of people suffer from this disease that is triggered by consuming gluten.  The challenging part is only 5% of  these individuals with Celiac Disease know they have it.  It is very important for people to recognize the symptoms of Celiac Disease which can develop in chronic health problems if left untreated. This May 2022, The AGA is working to increase awareness of the disease and give people the tools needed to eliminate their symptoms through lifestyle changes.  The AGA GI Patient Center offers many resources for patients who have or may have Celiac Disease.  This includes symptoms, testing and diet information.  For example: How to read a food label for gluten and how to dine out with Celiac Disease.

Following a gluten-free diet involves avoiding wheat, barley, rye, and all foods made with these ingredients.

The table below will help you find the foods you can still include, new ones to add, and gluten-containing foods to avoid.

There are many naturally gluten-free foods including dairy, seafood, meat, fruits, vegetables, fats and many grains.
